Step by step preparation of cottage cheese casserole with nuts
1. The first step is to brew semolina. To do this, pour 200 milliliters of water into a saucepan, add a pinch of salt and bring to a boil. Pour semolina into boiling water with one hand and at the same time stir with the other hand, with a whisk. You should get a porridge of a very thick consistency, without lumps.
2. Prepare the curd before adding it to the dough. Bring it to a creamy state. In this case, the hand blender will be the best assistant. You can also rub it through a sieve. If this is not done, then curd grains will be found in the finished dessert, and this will make it harder for the dough to rise.
3. Combine eggs with sugar and vanilla. Beat until stiff peaks. This recipe does not use baking soda or baking powder, so it is very important to beat the eggs until thick. The casserole will rise during baking only due to the beaten eggs. For greater confidence in the correct consistency, you can separate the whites from the yolks, add sugar in half and beat with a mixer all separately, and then carefully combine.
4. Combine the brewed semolina with cottage cheese. Then add the curd-semolina mass in parts into the egg mixture. This should be done with gentle circular movements using a silicone spatula. Stir the dough until smooth.
5. Dry the walnuts on a baking sheet in the oven or in a frying pan. Chop a little with a knife. Add to the dough, stir gently so that they are evenly distributed throughout the space.
6. A baking dish (I have a diameter of 24 centimeters) must be covered with non-stick paper and greased with vegetable or butter. Lay out the dough and spread it evenly over it with a silicone spatula.
7. Grease the curd mass on top with a thin layer of sour cream. This is done so that the curd does not burn and that a delicate and aromatic crust forms on the casserole.
eight. Bake curd casserole with walnuts in an oven preheated to 180 degrees for 40 minutes. If you have a smaller diameter form, then it is worth increasing the time. This is the process that every housewife should control, because the baking time also depends on the fat content of the cottage cheese, and on the power of the oven.
9. Cooked casserole, lightly browned. The sour cream has formed a crust on top, which tends to crack. And if you shake a casserole that has just been taken out of the oven, it should not shake. This means that the dessert is ready. Do not rush to try it right away, of course, the casserole is also tasty when hot, but in this state it will fall apart. Allow time to cool down properly and set. Then go gently with a knife along the edge and remove the split form. Serve dessert to the table. Bon Appetit!
So, the curd casserole is ready, you will feed the whole family with a delicious and healthy breakfast or dessert.
